Curved Nuts

 

It's all about triangulation!

The unique design of these pieces allows for them to touch the rock in three places, resulting in easy and bombproof gear placement
Based on a traditional angle taper design, the Curve Nut (TM) introduces a new twist--horizontal curves across two faces
By curving the faces, these pieces have opened up many new placement options
Horizontal curves assure you solid triangulation with the additional benefit of placements which are easy to visually monitor
Whether you are building a new rack or adding to your existing gear, the Metolius Curve Nut (TM) will quickly become a staple piece on any route
